This is based on the 137 folks who actually signed in for pictures. Add to that those who didn't sign in and lots of family members who came along & our gathering was well over 200!

Pretty good distribution, but my last class of '18 takes it away with '17 coming in at a close second. Where were you class of '15 and '99?

Thanks again for taking part in what will be one of the top memories of a lifetime!

We made the news :)

Thank you so much for the awesome turnout...I had students who came from all over the country as well as one traveling from Sweden and one from Turkey!

There were somewhere around 140 alumni students who signed in and had their pictures taken. The professional pictures will be available and posted on Facebook within 5 days. Thank You Photos by Kenzie Rae!

I've started to look through your assignments and resumes and am amazing by all the accomplishments & things that you have to be proud of. That will be good reading (and very touching for me) for a good long time to come.

Thank you for all the generous donations. I'm going to top them off and make a $250 donation to each of 4 of my favorite charities ~ Teach for America, Habitat for Humanity - Dane Co, The River Food Pantry and Madison Schools Foundation. The First Weber Foundation will match all of those, so in total we earned $2000 for these great causes!!

NBC 15 did a story which is likely to appear on the news sometime soon (I believe we got bumped today due to the tragedy in New Orleans.) Here's the link to the online story: https://www.wmtv15news.com/2025/01/02/madison-math-teacher-hosts-reunion-lifetime/

Thank you again for coming (or for the great messages from those of you who weren't able to come) and we'll see you again in another 25 years, if not sooner!

Some 27 years ago, Mr. White started a tradition. On the last day of his eighth grade math class, he would pass out paper invitations to his students for a reunion on January 1, 2025.
